Low‐Temperature Protonic Ceramic Fuel Cells through Interfacial Engineering of Nanocrystalline BaCe0.7Zr0.1Y0.1Yb0.1O3−δ Electrolytes

Nanocrystalline BaCe0.7Zr0.1Y0.1Yb0.1O3−δ (BCZYYb) is designed by a novel strategy with improved proton transport properties at low temperatures (<300 °C). In situ Raman spectroscopy and electrical conductivity relaxation (ECR) are used to quantitatively evaluate the surface exchange coefficients...
